I've been reading a Dave Pelzer book this evening, I don't really know why I started, my mum insisted that I should read it ages ago (my sister gave her a bunch of self-help books last birthday and she has palmed them off on us, apparently she doesn't

Waiting

Been working on my bank account coursework, I have got my bank account class all set up, I was thinking about using interfaces but I don't really get them, and I'm not sure I've got the time to figure them out.  I still have the test class to

Success!

Well, we had our first dry day with the potty training yesterday, I was really excited, (it is still bordering on being enough to put me off ever having kids again though).  I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel, we had started on

programming/the human condition
Wednesday, January 18, 2006 9:04 AM
We were taught about overriding and overloading yesterday in our programming lecture.  It was good lecture, it is always nice to end on a high when the rest of the day has been sooooo dull.  I don't blame the lecturers, with the professional

Rain
Tuesday, January 10, 2006 9:24 AM

Potty training
Wednesday, January 04, 2006 6:57 PM
Well, here we are, into the new year.  Littl'un has after acheiveing full potty-trainedness (if that counts as a word) has started militantly weeing in her pants, so she's back in pull-ups.  As I write this, I can't help but wonder if she reads
